Today, Paula Bartlett, John Lortz, Pat Hayes, Tom Behlon, and I conducted
the Kelleys Island monthly census.  This is the 14th July census.  The July
census average over the 14 years is 62 species and 3518 individuals.  Today
we were slightly below average with 60 species and 3210 individuals.
However, three new species were added t the July census list; Bald Eagle,
Olive-sided Flycatcher, and Acadian Flycatcher.  Six species recorded 14
year highs; Eastern Phoebe, Barn Swallow, Cedar Waxwing, Yellow Warbler,
Baltimore Oriole, and House Sparrow.
